call attention to the problems of sexual harassment in military organizations around the globe.
argue that U.S. servicewomen should receive the recognition and benefits they deserve.
Which of the following is the best statement of the central thought or thesis of the article "All Guts, No Glory"?
The women who have been injured or died in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have not received proper health care or an honorable burial by the military.
Women represent twenty-percent of new recruits to the military and should therefore have special rights and living accommodations when they report for active duty.
Because women in the U.S. military perform essential roles in which they may be injured or killed, the U.S. military should classify them as having served in battle.
What is the topic of the passage below?
When it comes to rape, which Havrilla suffered in 2007 at the hands of a male colleague, the military's misogyny shows itself at its worst. Military women are twice as likely as civilian women to be assaulted, often by the very men who are supposedly their comrades. One in three female vets reports rape or attempted rape. And if a soldier becomes pregnant as a result of sexual assault, military health benefits won't cover an abortion.
female veterans
health benefits
sexual assault in the military
If you asked the U.S. military, none of these women officially served in battle. That's because females in the armed forces don't technically fight in ground combat, but the Department of Defense (DOD) policy believes the reality of the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, and it's willfull avoidance of the truth denies military women safety training, health care, and career advancement. "It's time to give servicewomen the recognition they deserve," says Brigadier General Evelyn Foote, president emerita of the Alliance for National Defense in Alexandria, Virginia. "Let's join the 21st century and shed this exclusionary policy."
When Brigadier General Evelyn Foote says "let's join the 21st century" she means
the leaders of the U.S. military should change policies that are based on outdated, disproven assumptions.
all the United States should adopt the sophisticated, satellite-based methods of warfare used by other countries.
the time has come to make men more aware of what constitutes sexual harassment and sexual assault - and that such practices must cease immediately.
